Resurrection

[EricForgy]

I'm thinking about trying to resurrect this package using latest ZMQ.jl (or just plain sockets) and/or Requests.jl and Matlab's webread and/or tcpclient, which did not exist when this package was written and may eliminate the need for MEX stuff.

Any words of advice, warnings, encouragement? :)

You probably also know about https://github.com/twadleigh/jlcall. But if you want to avoid all mex-related stuff, then your approach sounds great!

If you'd basically like to take ownership of the package, I'm happy to transfer it. If you'd prefer to leave it here, that's fine too.
